Microenterprise plays a vital role in economic recovery
Washington’s unemployment rate hit an all-time high this November. But there is hope. Did you know that nationally microenterprises create 900,000 jobs per year on average? If the more than 480,000 microenterprises in Washington each created one new job, our unemployment crisis would be solved!
